2013 xtx, having my rear shock rebuilt and was wondering if anyone has Schmidt bros upgraded non-restrictive oil line kit? If so, did you see an improvement?

Thank you
 
This is the same larger diameter hose that HyGear installs on their rebuilds. Logically, a 3x larger hole moves oil better, I cant say if it is the HyGear rebuild or the hose or the combination but it does improve the shock's ability to move oil back and forth to the reservoir which means better response. Having said that, your overall setup, strap, presets on springs, skis, reversing the rubber mounts, carbides, track, all combine to make your handling what it is... if all those things are off and you upgrade the hose, may not feel much... for me, if you are rebuilding and don't do it often, upgrade the hose.
